Re: [gentoo-user] want to ditch kopete
Hello, I've been using Gaim 2.0.0_rc3 (some `r' version I can't recall) for some time, due to Kopete's compilation issues. I also hope Kopete will be fixed. - Neil On 13:35 Wed 18 Oct , Roy Wright wrote: > Howdy, > > ~x86, kde user. kopete-3.5.5-r1 will not compile.

If you are using the split ebuilds, you have installed a meta package that contains it. either unmerge the metapackage and emerge the programs you want, or do echo "kde-base/kopete-3.5.5-r1" >>/etc/portage/profile/package.provided -- Neil Bothwick ... ebius tagline.

[gentoo-user] want to ditch kopete
Howdy, ~x86, kde user. kopete-3.5.5-r1 will not compile. Already a bug report on it. I'd like to just ignore this version instead of having it fail every time I run an update. I don't use kopete so don't really care about it. Tried unmerging it. Update world insists on reinstalling it. Tried package.masking it, now it blocks update world. Any other tricks to ditch this dog? TIA, Roy -- ruby -e 'puts "qnxv?bhrbn-bnl".tr(" -}","!-~")' -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
